The World Is Overflowing with Monster, I’m Taking a Liking to This Life

Wow......

There were troubled people again.

I sigh in my heart.

Hissing himself in the corner of the parking lot, he peeks at how things are going.

Twelve people in all who have fled?

You're mostly middle-aged.

There are five students against each other.

The appearance feels that it is defective.

They have iron pipes and survival knives in their hands, intimidating those who have evacuated.

... There are people in the home center.

At least, four.

They're a little far apart, and at the current level of 'Sovereignty', we can't cover the entire home center, but at least some of the home centers seem to have their people.

Use 'listening ears' skills and listen to their conversations.

"We occupied this place first. Hit the other one!

"Oh, don't say that, please let me in. At least just the kids..."

"We can't afford that, we'll figure it out ourselves. Shit."

"Please, what can I do for you?"

There's been a lot of conversation like that.

Well, I don't know what to do.

In the meantime, it's best to keep it calm.

I don't have the benefit of getting involved.

I'd like to ask you not to stick your neck in one or the other and get into trouble.

One student came out of it to see if the refugees were too persistent.

It looks challah, but it doesn't feel nasty.

Students with an atmosphere that convinces them that it's that kind of fashion.

The bad guys at the entrance are surprised, and maybe they're their leaders.

"What's all this noise?

"To, Nishino. These guys..."

The students at the entrance explain the situation to the student known as Nishino.

Asylum-seekers also get a relief look at the appearance of young people who seem to be able to talk.

After hearing the whole story, he went out in front of the refugees.

"... let me talk to you. In conclusion, we cannot accept you."

"Oh, no -"

Despair dwells in the faces of the refugees.

"But if it's conditional, it's not too much to add to our people."

Conditions…?

Just a pretty girl or something?

Such an inferior thought struck me head, but he said something completely different.

"Has anyone in here ever killed a monster? If you're here, I'll add you to my team."

... what?

The refugees are bewildered by the conditions.

"... you don't seem to be here. Okay, I'll do it now. Kill even one monster. All of them, of course. Then we can accept you."

The evacuees are screaming that they don't know what they're talking about, but I know.

Kill the monster. What does that mean?

"... those students, you have skills"

I don't know to what extent the level is, but I guess I have more or less power to fight monsters.

On top of that, if you chose this location (Home Center) as your base, it's a solid choice. I don't have a problem with weapons or food here.

"In today's world, killing monsters increases the level and gives you the power to fight monsters: skills and professions. This is a fact that we have tested with our lives over the last two days. If you insist on 'helping each other', we want 'in return' too. In return for the name 'Power of War'."

Heh, that's surprising.

Oh, I can't believe I'm presenting information and conditions properly.

For what it looks like, aren't their claims pretty decent?

But the people who came running, they couldn't believe his story.

"I don't know what you're talking about, you bastard," but, "Skills and levels, this isn't a game! I'm not kidding!," "You don't see reality!" or screaming.

Dude......

You guys don't really see reality.

I mean, I don't have the right to accuse you guys of just running away. Bend over, 'I fought monsters and got information about this world' they are so much more splendid.

We don't know if a rescue is coming. In this situation, even food is a limited resource.

Everyone would give priority to themselves and their close friends in a situation like this.

Not to mention the impossibility of surviving while holding a foot in your hand.

So I'm saying we offer the terms and then we'll be buddies on top of it.

Their claims are extremely decent.

But he didn't understand it for the evacuees.

You found it ineffective to scream, and one of the old men started grounding.

"Please! Please! Please help me."

I'm rubbing my head against the ground and I'm starting to squeeze it on the students' feet.

The boulder students also began to wander over the behavior.

"Ha, please stay away! Even if we do that, we..."

"Please! Please! Please!

... It's really a 'hassle', you know, those guys.

I don't try to move from myself, I think someone else can do something about it.

If I cry, I think that's it.

Because - I don't want to get involved.

"... for now, you're behind on the home center"

Why don't you go to the drugstore or another store first?

I turned my heel back and Momo and I followed the scene.

Will those students be able to truncate properly?

I thought that a little bit as I heard the screams I could still hear.

The drugstore is right near the home center.

As we approached, there was a reaction to 'Sovereignty'.

"Are there people here too..."

There were several men in the drugstore, searching for what was inside.

Looking at you in your student clothes, are you one of the guys who was at the home center?

Using 'lurking' and watching for a while, they left with as much luggage as they could hold.

You don't have an item box.

"Okay, let's go."

"Wow."

Anticipating they're gone, me and Momo go into the drugstore.

You still have quite a bit.

The pharmaceutical shelves, and only those in front, were randomly removed and many remained in the back.

Pain medicine for colds, bandages and gauze.

Well, will you store it properly?

The time has come to activate the effect of the item box up to LV9.

When I thought of it as' storage 'in my head, the medicine in front of me was stored.

This is the newly added performance.

You can store visually captured objects in the item box without having to touch them directly.

Can hold up to ten at the same time. The maximum possible range is about five meters.

It is a great performance.

Thanks to this, the time to be a fire thief can be greatly reduced.

It was stored in an item box from one end and in just a few minutes all the items in the store were emptied.

Levels are up, and the item box itself is holding more.

When I opened the list, it was a tremendous amount.

But you still haven't got the limit for storing all this.

Because of this, do you want to go somewhere else?

Later, he also went around the supermarkets, restaurants, etc. in the vicinity of the home center and stored them in the item box from one end.

No matter. Master Itembox kept everything neat.

Really convenient. God.

Increase the level of the Item Box with certainty in the next level up.

That would be a big LV10.

Probably expects to add the "save function" you've been waiting for.

That would almost solve the food problem in this world.

Oh, I'm looking forward to it.

Me and Momo were obsessed with touring the store and the sun was completely tilting back to the home center.

"... Well, what happened to them?

When I went back, the crowd at the entrance to the home center was gone.

For once, there are about three male students left on the lookout.

Which......

Get a little closer and keep the entire home center within the bounds of 'Sovereignty'.

This is-- oh, well.

"In the end, you accepted..."

Inside the home center, quite a few signs of people were felt.

That's the same sign I felt earlier.

I mean, they accepted that evacuee.

Nothing. I don't have the right to tell you anyway, but are you okay?

Or are you going to force me to give you a level from now on?

I don't mind either.

"Well... I wonder if I can break in one of them"

Nothing. I didn't give up my home center supplies.

Besides, I'm also curious about their level and the level of information they have.

"Looks like we should start from the back."

Well, what do you say?
